OUR SPONSORS

UBC BIOMOD would not be possible without our generous sponsors, particularly ECOSCOPE, StarFish Medical, Juno Therapeutics, IDT, and the Faculty of Applied Sciences at UBC.

A BIG THANKS TO…

Dr. Vikram Yadav

UBC – Chemical and Biological Engineering

Dr. Yadav is our favorite chemical engineering professor and our faculty attache. He gave us feedback, guidance, and encouragement the whole way through.

Dr. Steven Hallam

Ecoscope

Dr. Hallam has provided the UBC BIOMOD team with our very own lab space. In addition, he is the founder of Ecoscope, UBC BIOMOD’s primary funder. UBC BIOMOD would not be possible without Dr. Hallam’s support.

Dr. Martin Hirst

Hirst Lab

Dr. Hirst graciously allowed us access to his lab and cell culture space after hearing about our idea.

Avery Noonan

Hallam Lab

Avery was a graduate student at the Hallam lab whose experience was invaluable to the UBC BIOMOD team. He was a great resource to troubleshoot the problems that UBC BIOMOD encountered.

Michelle Moksa
